At our school we endeavour to develop the whole child and part of that development relates to co-curricular activities.
We offer a number of sporting and cultural activities, together with a series of education opportunities outside the classroom.
Our sports teams are coordinated by Mr Tim Popping. Currently we have teams for both netball and basketball. We are always looking at how we can support student involvement in other sporting codes.

Every School Needs a Library - Welcome to our library
‘You can find magic wherever you look. Sit back, relax, all you need is a book.’ Dr Seuss
Our school library is a central hub supporting every child and staff member in the entire school. Our school promotes reading by having an effective library to support each child’s learning journey at our school. Also our library supports curriculum needs and teacher resources.
All classes go to the library each week..
Education Outside the Classroom (EOTC) is an important part of school life at our school. We currently run Senior Shool Camps every second year. We also have swimming lessons as part of our curriculum.
The interactions that take place while students are involved in learning outside the classroom are rich opportunities for implementing many aspects of the NZ Curriculum.
The experiences students have together beyond the classroom are important not only because of the learning that occurs for each individual student but also for the shared experience that teachers can draw on afterwards for further learning opportunities.
We currently have Ignite Music School giving private lessons to be groups and individuals on a Tuesday. These are paid for by parents
Most days we have sport and handball being played. At other times we will have choir and kapa haka practices. During our winter terms we run sports team pracitces at lunchtimes.
